The economic and health crises facing working families today are unprecedented. The Democratic majority must go forward this week with a comprehensive $1.9 trillion emergency COVID bill. If the GOP could use reconciliation to benefit the rich, we can use it to benefit workers. — PolitiTweet.org

Senate Democrats are prepared to move forward with a budget resolution. We will not wait for Republicans who always support trillions in tax cuts for the wealthy, but can’t find a nickel for working class families living in great desperation. https://t.co/3Gf46PLXLl — PolitiTweet.org

Oh look, another billionaire is mad that he might have to pay more taxes while children in America go hungry and veterans sleep on the street. Cry me a river. Yes. We will make Wall Street billionaires pay their fair share of taxes and create an economy that works for all of us. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders

We will never get 60 votes in the Senate to raise the minimum wage to $15 an hour. If we are going to keep faith with millions of low wage workers, the minimum wage increase must be a part of budget reconciliation. Let us end starvation wages in America. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders

If Democrats are to address the enormous crises facing working people, and keep faith with the campaign promises we made, we must go forward aggressively with the Senate reconciliation process. There is no alternative. Now is the time for bold action. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders

If Republicans want to come on board and pass COVID relief now, let’s do it. But what we aren’t going to do is wait weeks and weeks to get the American people, who are living in more economic desperation than at any time since the Great Depression, the help they need. https://t.co/pXWn4RlDaS — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders

In 1994, Democrats in power lost big because they were not bold. In 2010, it happened again. If we do not take aggressive action NOW to protect working families, it will happen in 2022. https://t.co/f3atTJAlNx — PolitiTweet.org

Hank Aaron’s ability on the field was only eclipsed by the strength and courage he showed off it. He inspired millions of us who watched him in awe. He will be deeply missed, but never forgotten. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders

We cannot reach out to Republicans indefinitely. If they choose not to come on board to help the American people now, we have the majority. We should use that majority. https://t.co/qMlc59Lw9F — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders

President Joe Biden knows we are all in this together. During World War II, factories across the country played a role in winning the war. Today's executive action means we will use the Defense Production Act to save countless lives here at home. https://t.co/8j8jfA3IZ8 — PolitiTweet.org

I stand with @newyorkerunion workers walking out today and fighting for a first union contract. The New Yorker should sit down with its workers and negotiate a fair contract in good faith. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders

Half of American workers are living paycheck to paycheck, and millions earn starvation wages. With Democratic control of the White House, the Senate and the House, we must raise the minimum wage to a living wage – $15 an hour. No excuses. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders

Amazon doesn’t want its workers to form a union because unionized workers have: - higher wages - better benefits - more control over their lives If Amazon workers in Alabama vote to form a union, that will benefit every worker in America. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders

The bottom line is: We’ve got crises. We should hear what my Republican colleagues have to say, but we are not going to spend months and months and not address the incredible pain millions of families are experiencing. https://t.co/PvEfMEDfHu — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders

Essential workers should not have to go on strike for decent pay, and no worker should be threatened for exercising their constitutional rights. I strongly support Hunts Point Market @Teamsters strikers in their struggle for justice. https://t.co/FhsgvxCGYO — PolitiTweet.org

As President Biden said, this country today faces unprecedented crises. The times call out for bold action. That’s what we’ve got to do. https://t.co/qcMqVPXYkP — PolitiTweet.org

Joe Biden will inherit from Trump: The worst economy since the Great Depression, the worst public health crisis in 100 years, massive wealth inequality, the existential threat of climate change, a racist immigration system. These unprecedented crises demand unprecedented action. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders

Today is the last full day of the worst and most dangerous president in American history. For four years Trump has tried to divide our people up. Our job, now, is to bring people together around an agenda that works for all, not just the few. — PolitiTweet.org

The Keystone pipeline is & always has been a disaster. I'm delighted that Joe Biden will cancel the Keystone permit on his first day in office. With all of the major crises facing America, we must never lose sight of the most existential threat facing our planet: climate change. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders

In this unprecedented moment – a pandemic, an economic meltdown, right wing violence, climate change, massive wealth inequality, systemic racism – we must move forward in an unprecedented way. Now is the time to stand up for working families & take on powerful special interests. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders

For too long our country has prioritized corporate profits, tax cuts for the rich and military spending over investing in the American people. That is what I will fight to change as Senate Budget Committee Chairman. https://t.co/dqjJ9hPGJa — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders

When Republicans controlled the Senate they used the reconciliation process to provide huge tax breaks for the rich and large corporations.  We're going to use reconciliation to protect working families, the sick and the poor. — PolitiTweet.org
